Chapter 179: Conspiracy

Shen Yu tilted her head to look at him, not knowing what to say.

He asked this on purpose. Shen Yu thought so in her heart and her hands loosened.

Xie Tingzhou clasped her hand in his palm with his backhand, and asked in a bad tone: "Am I shameful?"

Shen Yu wondered: "My brother would scold me to death. He once told me that girls should be more reserved and not be careless like me."

"Aren't you reserved enough?" Xie Tingzhou seemed to be complaining, "I'm the one who loves you like the stars and the moon, but I haven't been able to marry you yet. How can you keep me reserved for ten or eight years?"

Shen Yu couldn't help but laugh, patted his arm and comforted him: "Now is not the time. I will find a chance to talk to him. Besides, besides..."

"Besides what?"

"Besides, marriage can't be so hasty." Shen Yu was a little thin-skinned.

Xie Tingzhou's eyes softened, "Of course I can't bear to wrong you. I have asked my father to make preparations in Beilin."

He stopped and asked Shen Yu to face him, with an extremely serious tone, "Ayu, when things are over, I will take you back to Beilin. We will get married in Beilin. I can't wait any longer."

"You don't know how to embroider the wedding dress. I have already asked people to start preparing it. Eighty embroiderers will prepare it. When we return to Beilin, the wedding dress should be ready. I want to give you the best."

"Now that your eldest brother is back, you are no longer alone. He will carry you out of the cabinet, and I will take you from him. I don't want the throne anymore. Let's build a courtyard in the north and live there together. Where do you want to go?" After playing, I will accompany you."

Shen Yu raised her head slightly and looked at him.

He said a lot, and they all sounded so good, but could he go back?

How can you allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch?

Beilin is the sharp blade hanging over the king's head, and Xie Tingzhou is the scabbard that restrains Beilin.

The king put him under his nose. No matter who sat on the dragon throne, the sword always existed.

Xie Tingzhou understood her so well that he could see the worries in her heart with just one look.

"Don't be afraid." Xie Tingzhou hugged her under the moonlight and whispered in his ear, "If I want to leave, no one can stop me. At worst, it will be a fight to the death. Don't be afraid, I will take you home. "

Shen Yu leaned on his shoulder and looked at the clear light falling on the ground.

She has always avoided thinking about Xie Tingzhou's ending in her previous life, but she fell into nightmares again and again when the end of Emperor Tongxu was approaching.

She dreamed that he was standing in the palace gate covered in blood, holding out his hand, one step away from the palace gate, but in the end he could not get out of the prison.

Shen Yu closed her eyes, shuddered suddenly, and tightened her arms around him.

Xie Tingzhou kissed her temples and comforted her over and over again, "Don't be afraid, Auntie, don't be afraid, I'm here."

…

Today the three Dharma ministers gathered at Dali Temple to discuss matters.

It was dusk when Xu Yishan and Cao Hong came out of Dali Temple.

"Look at their attitude." Cao Hong said sternly: "Dali Temple is trying to make peace and throw all the burden on our criminal department. No matter what the outcome of this case is, it will be futile. They are trying to Take out Dali Temple, and no matter what happens, it will fall on us."

Xu Yishan said calmly, "This is good, at least it can prove that Dali Temple did not collude with them, and we can let go when trying the case without being constrained by others."

"But this case has been delayed for almost a month!" Cao Hong said anxiously: "Your Majesty gave us only half a month left in the deadline. In the past three days, Marquis Xuanping uttered two words in total, which was to ask for water. He This is a decision not to say anything and to fight to the end.”

"The title of Marquis Xuanping hasn't been removed yet, and we can't even go to jail. The Ministry of Punishment is caught in the middle. It's really hard to be a good person inside and outside."

Xu Yishan let out a long sigh, "I'll report it to the emperor and see what your majesty says."

The two of them had just entered the palace.

A gorgeous carriage drove up at the gate of the palace. Looking at the sign hanging on the eaves of the carriage, the two knew that the person coming was the King of Qi, so they stepped aside to give way.

King Qi's carriage stopped in front of the two men.

Li Yanchang lifted the car curtain, "Are you two adults going to the palace to meet the saint?"

The two of them bowed and saluted, and Xu Yishan said: "That's right. King Qi, please go first."

"Well." Li Yanchang just lowered the curtain, but then opened it again, "Then Marquis Xuanping hasn't done anything yet?"

Cases from the Ministry of Punishments cannot be spread outside the case before they are concluded, so Xu Yishan naturally would not speak.

Li Yanchang smiled understandingly, "I see Mr. Xu frowning. He must be worried about this matter, right? I have an idea. I wonder if the two adults are willing to listen."

Xu Yishan thought for a moment and realized that there had been no progress in this matter so far. It was okay to listen to it, so it was up to him not to accept it.

"Your Majesty is all ears."

Li Yanchang said: "Actually, everyone tacitly understands who the person who can be defended by Marquis Xuanping is after all, he is a blood relative, but..."

Li Yanchang paused and continued: "Who said that Marquis Xuanping only has one blood relative? Isn't there a closer one?"

Xu Yishan and Cao Hong looked at each other and saw that Li Yanchang had put down the curtain and left.

Cao Hong said: "Sir, I think this method is feasible. Although serious prisoners are not allowed to visit the prison, it is purely a dead horse being treated as a living horse doctor. It is better to let the young marquis go to the prison to meet him."

"Everything is used in the trial, and threats have been used long ago." Xu Yishan's eyes were filled with worry.

"It's not a threat." Cao Hong said, "Let the father and son meet in person. Marquis Xuanping may soften when he sees his precious son."

Xu Yishan sighed: "Then let's try it."

The carriage drove far away, and the driver asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, can those two people listen?"

The carriage turned a corner at the end of Palace Lane.

Li Yanchang lifted the curtain and took a look, just in time to see Xu Yishan and Cao Hong turning around and leaving.

"If you didn't listen, those two people should follow you into the palace now."

"It's really not easy." The driver said: "The Criminal Department is guarded by Xu Yishan like Tietong. The people in prison are all his cronies, and they can't talk to him at all."

"When Marquis Xuanping saw Pei Chunli, he should have known that his mouth should not be shut too tightly." Li Yanchang said nonchalantly: "I have to thank Anan for being such a good brother."

The driver seemed a little excited, "The prince's grand ambition is just around the corner."

"Asshole!" Li Yanchang scolded: "What kind of place is this?"

The driver lowered his head and said, "This subordinate is at fault."

Li Yanchang stepped out of the carriage and said, "You are waiting here. There is no need to follow."

"yes."

The maids and chamberlains in the palace all need to be decent. The driver has a scar running through his face. With such an appearance, he would not dare to show his face in front of the emperor.

Li Yanchang went to pay his respects to Emperor Tongxu. When he came out and was about to leave the palace, he saw Shigure approaching.

Li Yanchang stopped and waited for a moment, "Master Shi."

Shen Yu: "I've met the prince."

Li Yanchang half-squinted his eyes, and a smile flashed across his feminine face, "Looking at the way Mr. Shi is dressed, it's really worth it."

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am preparing to go home," Shen Yu replied seriously.

"That's just right." Li Yanchang said with a smile: "I also want to leave the palace, so I might as well give you a ride."

Shen Yu looked at Li Yanchang quietly and said after a moment: "Okay, thank you King Qi."
